Crux also incentivizes you towards using the absolute necessary and to consider programming quality, such as amount of dependencies, how often developers break things and how up to spec the programs are when you decide on what to use.
It officially supports ~1000 packages max. And it is not often that you will have breakage with those packages, especially with the low level ones in /core and /opt port collections. So any breakage will not break the system.
My system has ~550 packages installed. I just find it a lot easier to manage them that the thousands that other distros would force me to install.

I never really had this problem, usually the distro specific way of doing things got in the way.
I still use a normal distro on my laptop but I don't use it for development or other complex configurations.

Btw, if you want to try them out, do it in a chroot. Afterwards you can just copy the filesystem or just point the bootloader to it if you decide to use them as your main.
